Ian, thanks for replying.
I'll give cfgadm | grep sata a go in a minute.
At the mo I've rebooted from 2009.06 livecd. Of course I can't import
rpool because it's a newer zfs version :-(
Any way to update zfs version on a running livecd?
Thanks for helping out!

I seem to have complicated matters:
I shutdown the system (past midnight here :-) )and seeing your reply
come in, fired it up again to further test.
The system wouldn't come up anymore (dumped in maintenance shell) as
it would try to import both rpool systems (I guess)
So I powered down, and disconnected the 2nd disk, and rebooted. So
far so good, system comes up.
Then I reconnected the 2nd disk (it's a sata) but the system will not
see it.
/var/adm/messages shows this:

Assuming your system supports hot swap, what does "cfgadm | grep sata"
show?
You should be able to use "cfgadm -c configure sataX/Y" to configure
an attached, but unconfigured drive.
Or you could use failsafe boot and import/rename the old rpool.
